Sam came up behind me, patted me on the shoulder "Go ask her if she wants to join us for dinner." I nodded already striding towards her a smile crossing my face at just at the thought of talking to her again, "Hey" I whispered from just behind her. She spun around with a gasp but smiled when she saw it was me the feeling that came over me was one of pure joy, it was a warmth that filled my body and had enough shivering in delight. I could tell that she was beginning to feel the effects of the imprint as well. "Hey, I thought we were going to meet tomorrow?" I grinned in response.

"Yea but I finished what I needed to do. Me and my friends are going to grab something to eat."

She smiled at me but it suddenly dropped when she replied "I would love to but I ah... Don't really have the money for it."I could easily understand her embarrassment over telling someone that you were not very well off, I feel it often in my life.

"Don't worry about it we are just going to one of my friends places." I replied trying to put her at ease.

"Ok I guess I could come, if that's ok with your friend." I could tell she was hesitant about joining us.

"He was the one to suggest I invite you over" I smiled at her before standing and offering her my hand. The same feeling over came me as our skin touched, I was lost in her touch so when she used me hand to pull herself up I almost full on her thankfully I regained my balance before that could happen. Once she was on her feet I took a step back out of surprise my eyes glued to her slightly rounded stomach 》Oh god my imprint is pregnant to another guy, where the hell was this guy《 . Bella had her head down and I could smell a tinge of saltiness in the air. I felt like shit I had just made my imprint cry I think I would have to be the only soul mate in history to make their imprint cry.

"I'm sorry Bella it was just a bit of a shock. I didn't realise." I rubbed her shoulder, the last thing I expected was for her to walk straight into my arms. It was like nothing I had ever felt before we completeness and peace of having your imprint in your arms, I wanted to stand there and hold her forever but my protectiveness finally overwhelmed my own selfish needs. "come on lets get you off your feet" I said taking her hand and leading her in the direction of Sam's place.

Bella giggled quietly I smiled at the breath taking sound but I quirked my eyebrow at her silently asking her what was so funny.

"You are going to make a great father one day." her smile faded a little at that was she thinking about the father of her baby.

Before I could make a decision to ask the question I found it pouring out of my mouth, " where is the father of your baby?" She stumbled at the question "you don't have to answer that you" I added quickly not wanting to put her on the spot or make her uncomfortable.

She shook her head "No it's ok, he ahh... Really isn't in the picture." The fact that this guy wasn't in the picture made me very happy but the fact that he left her to deal with having his child alone made me shake with anger, I could tell that there was a lot to it that she wasn't telling me but I promised myself that I wasn't going push her for more info. I would wait patiently for her to open up to me I just hoped it wouldn't take to long, now that I have found her I really just wanted to start our life together, if you had asked me a couple of days ago how I felt about imprinting I would have sworn up and down that I never would and if I did then I would fight it until my last breath. Now however I was excited about the prospect of the possibilities that were waiting for me. We had just entered the back yard as Jared was coming out of the house he waved us over, I could tell from here that he was anxious to eat but I didn't pick up the pace screw that bastard he could wait.

"That's Jared he has been my best friend since we were in nappies you will meet him in a minute along with his girlfriend Kim."

She nodded in understanding I could tell she was starting to get nervous the closer we got, I rubbed my thumb over the back of her hand trying to calmer. By the time we made it up the stairs to the back door the tension had left her shoulders, I opened the door and guided her inside with my hand on her lower back I could hear the other imprints in the kitchen discussing what they think Bella is like. The guys were shouting at the football game it was loud enough that even Bella could hear it, I guided her into the kitchen first because I knew if I didn't Emily Sam's imprint would have my ass and that is never something you want. Being Sam's imprint she had a power over him that could allow her to dish out a harsh punishment, don't get me wrong she is a very caring person an eternal mother if you like. When we turned the corner Emily squealed a little and headed towards Bella pulling her into a warm hug I saw Bella hesitate before wrapping her arms around Emily and hugging her back, I could smell a hint of her tears and that made me wonder why what kind of life she had before she came here.

"This is Emily and that over there is Kim. Emily is Sam's fiancè and Kim is Jared's girlfriend." I introduced gesturing to each of them in turn.

"I'm so happy to meet you Bella." Emily said still holding her hand.

"Emily stop hogging her I want a hug to." Kim said coming towards us as well wrapping Bella up in a hug.

I smiled at the fact that the girls have welcomed Bella in so easily and it warmed my heart, "It's a pleasure to meet you both as well." she replied her accent coming out strong, that accent of hers was going to be my undoing when she spoke it sounded like pure sex. I had to distract myself before I laid her down on the kitchen bench, " Come on I'll introduce you to Sam and Jared" I said taking her hand again and leading her towards the lounge room where the boys had fallen silent to eavesdrop on the girls introduction.

Sam stood when we walked in he was slouched down slightly in an attempt to look less threatening to her.

" Hi Bella I'm Sam, welcome to our home. Your welcome here any time." she smiled at him shyly.

"Thank you Sam that is very kind of you." she said shaking his hand.

" oh holy mother of god." I heard Jared and Quil whisper simultaneously and stare wide eyed at my imprint, Jared may be imprinted but even he could appreciate the sexiness that was my imprint, Quil on the other hand I would have to watch he was a little horndog.

"This is Jared and Quil." I said sitting her down before taking my seat next to her.
